Burned tree stump in clearcut, Tasmania, between Florentine Valley and Mount Wedge. Areas like this coupe are clearcut by Forestry Tasmania and its contractors then burned and poisoned before being left like this to regrow. ....Forest activists in Tasmania maintain that the government's forestry policy is destroying the environment and that 90% of Tasmania's old growth forest is already gone.
